The Dark Knight Rises - Alfred's Fantasy (HD)

[@poontang3zizo]

Alfred would never leaf Bruce in the comics. Nolan destroyed the characters.

[@gor9027]

poontang3zizo To be fair, all of the Batman films, good and bad, take liberties with the characters. In Batman (1989), Alfred lets Vicky Vale into the Batcave. That's something Alfred would never do in the comics, and Burton was rightfully criticized for that decision. I don't think there is a single superhero movie out there that hasn't taken liberties with at least one major character. Out of all the live action Batman films, The Dark Knight definitely comes the closest to staying faithful to the source material.

[@poontang3zizo]

gorrow1990 BvS Batman was the best Batman as hes the closest to the Batman in real. He is brutal and beats up bad guys easily. Alfred in that movie is the most accurate since he is Bruce loyal butler. That is the best most accurate Batman movie to date. All the other Batman movies aren't Batman

As corny as this will sound, I remember before this movie came out I was in a major depression. I lost my job, a girl I loved, I cut off contact with nearly everyone. My back started giving me problems from lack of exercise & lying all day and I had to use a cane. And off course I had a beard. Then TDKR came out and I decided to leave my house after 5 months alone and see it. I have to say is those early scenes of Bruce hit me real deep. And this moment well up to this day it brings me to tears.

[@Tobyee]

*Same here* 💔💔💔

[@MR_Edits03]

This is such a beautifully tragic scene. You can see Bruce’s despair. You can sense his continued sadness for losing Rachel, but also the sadness in knowing Alfred is right. He knows Alfred is right, that he never moved on, and that by coming back to Gotham when he did, he entered that world of pain again. The fatherly desperation in Alfred to get Bruce to leave the past is immense and beautiful. You can see him in pain, watching Bruce slowly lose himself to sadness and despair. He expresses that in such a great fatherly way. Perhaps my favorite part is when he tells Bruce that he never wanted him to come back, because of how much pain is linked to Gotham for him. It’s a dead end for Bruce, a point in his life that was defined by tragedy. He always wanted more for him, for both his parents sake and his own. They have a father son relationship by circumstance, and watching him come back to that of course hurt him immensely. I love this scene also for my personal relation to it. Not gonna go too much into it, but I have a similar experience with my home. I’ve had my dad say the same thing to me, and man it carries the same weight that it does here. It hurts to hear, but it’s the truth. Overall, beautiful scene.

I loved Alfred as a character. Alfred is more than Bruce's butler. He's Bruce's best friend, almost like a father figure to him. He clearly loves Bruce dearly, almost as a son. He's there for Bruce during his darkest hours, and he stands by Bruce through his most insane plans. He supports Bruce in his operations but also supports him emotionally and more than anything, he wants Bruce to be happy. To help him move past the pain of his loss. Goddamn it, you really have to love Alfred and his wisdom.

Batman is the symbol of endurance and hope. The man behind the mask is more then just a mask that we all strive to be like him.He is a man who has lost so much, his parents, his love of his life ,his heart broken and literally his body broken in half. His own city that he loves turns against him. And through all this tribulation he finds it in himself to persevere over the darkness and escape it.And literally escape it. The Dark Knight is one of my second favorite of the three. In this scene we see him still closed off from the outside world because his spirit has been broken and is in depression,but slowly starts to come out of it when Alfred informs him on the events.And like his father’s quote “why do we fall ?” “So that we can learn to pick ourselves up.”” Gets back up from despair and fight and fight which is life itself in the real world that we live in.

[@zamaskowany12]

Dhan He isn't that good of a detective because he would add that she also stole his hearth :D

[@brucesnow7125]

Dhan next time someone says that, just copy and paste this comment mate: Batman Begins: - Tricks Ra's Al Ghul during the training making him think that he exposed himself because of his wound while he actually uses his wound to trick him, fast thinking. - Gathers evidence about most of the corrupt officials in a matter of short time, they were committing crime for years without getting caught I tell ya. - Look at how he fights in the docks when he's taking down Falcone and his thugs, he uses scare tactics to get rid of gunmen first, then proceeds to fight like 10-15 guys just to make them live to tell the tale. - Same with taking down Crane - After taking down Crane quickly proceeds to Fox, so that he can make some cure against his toxin after finding out that special technology for dissolving water supplies is taken and that all the water supplies were poisoned. - Which leads him to figure out that Ra's Al Ghul needs train to take the machine to Wayne Enterprise to spread toxin, good old deducting - Turns himself into distraction making Ra's think that he is trying to stop the train, while Bruce's whole plan was to keep Ra's busy while Gordon is destroying the bridge, so Bruce tricks him again, quick thinking once again. - Throughout the movie creates the symbol, a myth, because as a man with flesh and blood he is vulnerable, but as a symbol...well you get the idea. What I'm saying is, he doesn't just go fighting crime, he prepares everything, builds his base of operation, gathers evidence about his enemies and friends, gathers equipment for his battle, chooses specific symbol for the battle and then proceeds to kick some ass. It's not like CW Arrow where he just finds a factory and starts just writing off people from his list, Batman didn't have any list. The Dark Knight: - After a couple of years or so, all of the criminals are so scared that they operate only on the daylight, how about that? Night belongs to Batman - Suspecting that mobs work with Lau, invites him to his company so he can look at his accounts and confirm his suspicions. Knowing exactly that Lau took all their money, develops an ingenious plan to take him down in the China - So, at first he gathers equipment for his mission with his goal being faster and get into the plane without landing. Then creates alibi for Bruce Wayne's dissappearance that he took all the Russian ballet dancers with him on the boat trip, then goes to China discretely. Sets the timer on each of the sticky bombs at specific time, takes down all Lau's men, and bomb explodes and plane flies through exactly when police arrive and exactly when Bruce finished got Lau where he wanted. How can someone call him dumb after that? Are people high? - Uses government resources to change Fox's sonar device and infects every phone in the city in the way that he would be able to see everything. He does that at the middle of movie just in case as plan B without telling anyone, he knew that Joker would do something as huge as that so that he can use it - In the end device is useful, but as he knows exactly how Fox would react specifically builds up self destruction option for Fox. - The entire final battle is him strategically taking down everyone without killing them, my favorite moment is when he ties all cops, makes them think that he lost, but then pushes one and all fall with him, ingenious. The Dark Knight Rises, now to put in a context, Bruce is rusty here, he isn't thinking straight, he is psychologically destroyed, so his mistakes are justified, yet still: - Easily figures out that Selina is there to steal his fingerprints just by looking at the safe and what she took, he psychologically evaluates that she took necklace only because she liked it and she was there because of his prints. - Then he easily finds her...twice. - Just through looking at stories about Bane, figures out that someone who escaped should be Ra's Al Ghul's kid, he of course makes mistake here thinking that Bane is the one, but stories were saying that Bane was the one who escaped so he couldn't really know that. - Gets into freaking occupied city and no one notices him. - Specifically puts on plan that Catwoman would open up the roads in case, while Gordon would be handling a bomb and he himself creates a huge distraction in the form of an army...yes, the whole battle was just distraction. He knew that he wouldn't survive without Catwoman's intervention so that's why this plan was secondary. - Fixes autopilot thing that Fox himself couldn't fix and makes everyone think that he is dead so that Blake would continue his job, by that he practically turns symbol of Batman into something indestructible. Why you say? Batman is considered dead, but when Blake appears as Batman everyone would be twice as scared because criminals are superstitious lot, and they would think that Batman can't be killed. So he managed to both get a normal life and ensure that Gotham is safe by creating incredible myth. -

The best parts of The Dark Knight Rises and perhaps the trilogy isn't the action sequences. It's deep, emotional scenes like these. Christian Bale and Michael Caine are the perfect Bruce and Alfred. The pain that Bruce carries with him, and Alfred's desperate plea for him to seek happiness. And I'd remiss not to mention Hans Zimmer's score that perfectly expresses their feelings in these moments. It's perfection.

[@reidpattis3127]

I remembered when the movie came out, people absolutely hated that he hung up the cape. But I think that’s the point, and it’s what I love about Nolan’s Bruce. It’s about moving past and letting go of the pain and trauma of one’s life. This is a story for all those who suffered from PTSD and wants a peaceful life.

[@kobiyashimaru7425]

“You lost them, that’s all part of living, sir. But you’re not living, you’re just waiting; hoping for things to go bad again” That is so relatable. I love how Michael Caine portrays a subtle fatherly frustration and disappointment in his mentees narrow mindedness and dedication to a dead end task, mixed in with the sadness that brings.- all portrayed brilliantly by the diamond geezer that is Sir Michael Caine CBE It’s time for me to stop smoking weed and get back into the gym I think

[@alessiodelcastillo1613]

The gym helps

[@dr.feelgoodmalusphillips2475]

​@alessiodelcastillo1613 Not for long, however. You need to do more than lift weights to be tranquil.

[@twoton1991]

It's just so well done! All aspects of the scene. Cinematography, music, Nolan flashback devices...fantastic

[@karankenZ]

Bruce is a such a good child, he did everything Alfred wanted in this scene , lol. He even ended up marying selina. I wonder if in that brief moment where Bruce said , she likes the pearls too much, Alfred kind of saw a soft spot in Bruce for Selina.

[@mirjana72mb]

karankenZ ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) so she likes dem pearls a lot huh

[@MrBlick76]

Michael caine is such a friggin legend. And these Batman movies proved it. Some of his scenes with bale are some of the most heartfelt and beautifully dark scenes of any superhero movie.

[@f_suw_gordon]

This scene has always been close to me. My grandfather just passed but he always wanted what’s best for me and not the world. I never listened. And when my grandfather passed. I understood his fantasy. And made it happened.

[@Tiscy_Whiskey]

"When he says I still do" at the end! 🥺❤️❤️ what a good man Alfred is!! It takes a guy like Alfred to raise a hero like Batman 😎

[@zpineda3294]

The only series of superhero movies where I equally care for the drama and the action

When you get older this movie gets so deep

I share his same lifestyle except I'm not rich and I don't have anyone to talk to

[@rikvermar7583]

i'm 40+, was there for the 1st Batman movie (Keaton) and every other film since - but this Trilogy is something else - not just a comic book hero film but a blend of prob the greatest storyline ever written and graced with Mr Hans Zimmer, THIS will never be beaten

[@kristinakrylova1145]

One of the best scenes by far. Breaks my heart every time

[@gabrielwinter1112]

"You two should exchange notes over coffee." 😂😂

[@Lavaman3682]

For those of us who have stood on a wall, we can relate to both Alfred and Bruce. Wanting to come home, but knowing you can't, really. And hoping that somewhere out there, some of your friends made it out too, that they can be just ordinary folks. And loving your Brothers in Arms as if they were your own. Great scene.

[@WaddIes]

[@Toxic_Dominat810]

This makes me cry as a grown man.

[@ashleysmith9000]

I love how at the end of the movie Alfred's fantasy comes true and we get to see it, they don't say a word to one another they just give a little nod. Beatiful ending.

[@Daniel-y9t3w]

Heart of gold and no one can take that away

[@kin4386]

Alfred's scenes in this trilogy are some of my absolute favourites. His dialogue has a lot of punch to it, and Michael Caine's acting always brings me to tears in the more emotional scenes. One of the best characters by far.

[@GHOST-zy3ji]

There is nothing here for you other than pain and tragedy Exactly how I feel about my town and why I won’t ever come back

[@joewhitehead3]

Can I ask what happened?

[@15aacGomez]

I broke up with my girlfriend 4 months ago and I reflect on this scene sometimes. I loved her for over 3 years, but I also knew her since we were kids sort of like Rachel and Bruce. I think I’m gonna give dating a break, I’m gonna give myself up to 8 years with the single life just like Bruce, grow a beard and maybe I’ll find my cat woman some day.

[@spambamkeija634]

@@bluepunk8423 That's how you made it. Making yourself feel that you need someone to make you happy will only keep you less happy in the end. If you're not yet content being with yourself, you won't be with anybody. The temporary happiness and honey moon phase will pass and you'll just be like Wtf.

Your circumstances isnt that deep brah.

[@HeroProductionz]

It'll be pretty lonely

[@jasont.9962]

That wasn't the point of this scene. It was for Bruce to realize that there was a better life waiting else where for him. THAT'S what you should take from this dude.

[@DomCobb1]

I relate to batman even more because of this scene. Everyone needs a Alfred in their life and Bruce is honestly lost without Alfred. He's technically more of a father to Bruce. "There's nothing out there for me"

[@superuser6305]

'that nothing out there for me' hit directly to me

[@nervenest]

This series just changed my life ❤❤❤

[@Tomorrow.Knight]

2021. Still holds up. 💪

[@AdamFeuerauge]

I relate so hard with Bruce‘s place of mind. I stopped living such a long time ago, I can’t even remember the last time I was genuinely happy. It feels like I‘m waiting for someone to pull me out of that hell but I also feel like there is no one who is able to do that. And I myself am too emotionally drained to try break free, I was so often disappointed by the world and I also lost the person I loved

[@5552-d8b]

I relate to that. After my crush ghosted me years ago similar to how batman got friendzoned. I just felt empty. I’m currently at the point where I’m not sad or happy anymore and I decided I’ll let god take care of my relationship thing cause I was tired of getting ghosted or my crush picking somthing else other then me. Now I’m just focusing on myself and leaving relationships for god to solve

[@tristanpYGO]

God Bruce is so depressed and Alfred is the only one that sees it and he makes the effort to help Bruce get better even when it meant having to leave him. To leave Bruce alone with the choices he made and to think about what his life was really worth and what he really wanted. Amazing relationship across 3 films

[@dffawaz]

Everytime I watch this scene in the film I have to pick the pieces off the floor that make my heart.

[@revengetragedy]

10 years on and this still hits in the feels.

[@feronic7363]

Alfred - Every year I would take a holiday Bruce - Hold up...you took unrequested leave?!

[@dylandaniels4354]

Me as Bruce when he says, "There's nothing out there for me." I'm afraid to have my heart broken.

[@abs6869]

Bale's subtle reaction of a surprise starting 1:06 is amazing. Very well done. The closest Batman will be to reality is Nolan's version of the caped crusader.

[@MagSnapShots]

Alfred was always the first and original BatCat shipper. "Fascinating. You both should exchange notes over coffee" - foreshadowing of Florence cafe scene.

[@davec3651]

I love the frankness of Alfred in this scene.

[@sebbyplayz0049]

This scene just works in every way, the music is absolutely gut wrenching and beautiful, and Michael Caine’s performance is amazing, he is hands down the best alfred, and this will be the best batman series of movies. Now days movies lack the connection that these characters had, and i don’t think modern day iterations of Batman will ever top this. Like if u agree

[@jtrain3874]

Hans Zimmer can’t miss🫡

[@hassansiddiqi7689]

That "I did find someone" broke my heart

[@philipsalama8083]

Alfred reminds me of Ben Affleck's character in Good Will Hunting - selflessly hoping his friend goes onto better things, even if it means they leave.

[@anthonydef3000]

When Alfred shares his fantasy This was the moment I realized Bruce did have a father

[@tyrocyr]

“And you lost them, but that’s all part of living, but you’re not living, you’re just waiting, hoping for things to go bad again.” Dam that hit deep 😢😔
